View Full Version : my first car. my sweetheart


PPiechocki10-01-2009, 12:17 AMi got this '85 for $800 back in july. when i got it, i thought it had bad rings, so i had the motor rebuilt. i come to find out that it jumped a cog, blowing a hole in the side of my #4 piston. i had the guy bore it out 30 over, grind my valves, and install an aftermarket crank, cams, connecting rods, pistons, and anything else he could find. took 3 months and $1,800, but i'm finally working on install. i cut the exhaust just before the flex pipe, split it, and trew on two 18" long glasspacks. no more cats, no more bends, no more huge muffler full of rusted chunks. i pulled the dash and console apart, painted it black and blue, and as soon as i find a kit for it, it's getting plush neon blue carpet and a black headliuner, new racing seats, blue neon lights under the dash, around the stereo face, and along the doorwell. it just got two 12" shallow-mount Kenwood subs and a JVC Arsenal amp and a 5 farad capacitor on a Blaupunkt deck with 6.5" Sony XPLOD SPEAKERS IN THE DOOR AND 4" infiniti speakers in the dash. the paint's an '03 Mazda color, and it came out like crap. major orange peel and i big gust of wind blew a bunch of debris into my hood right after i laid the last coat. by the time i call this car done, it will be converted to a 6spd, be running a stage 3 turbo, the rear trunk will house the intercooler, i'll build a custom dual intake for it, and run the biggest injectors and fuel pump i can find. it'll also get two 20lb NOS bottles in the front trunk running to a wet shot system. hope some of you will meet me on the strip. =) oh! more pics coming soon PPiechocki10-04-2009, 12:39 AMbefore the paint, while the paint was still wet, and a few while it was in the shop during motor install prep traintech8610-04-2009, 05:07 PMawesome man! randomxzero10-04-2009, 05:32 PMnot so fond of the interior mods your gonna do kinda ricey.. but eh to each their own.. but great to see another MKI coming back to the road :thumbup: mr2tim10-04-2009, 08:48 PMNice work, be proud you did a good quality rework.!

PPiechocki11-15-2009, 03:23 AMwow!!! so much frustration and wasted money due to a retarded teacher shooting down every solution i have, even though i've been correct each time. she started right up!!!!!!!
